This was exactly what my sister told me few months ago when I told her how I was suffering when I was living in Indonesia.

"If you are not willing to cure yourselves medically and religiously" you have "to accept your fate to be ridiculed and harassed.""

I just smiled when my sister told me that on skype for the first time after so many years away. She said, she would be embarrassed if i go back to Indonesia, and I deserved to be harassed and abuse by people, she even will call the police to arrest me so i will be scare and back as a man and get married. Our parents are crying in the grave looking at me like that...

I cried, but at the same time, I'm just so happy to be myself and away from my family who won't accept me! Even when my other sisters said, " you are so pretty now" but other sister told them " don't call HIM pretty, let him be a man like he was born, that's against our religion!

When I read this story about Obama's nanny, It just reminded me of my childhood, it was real, TS and Gay person are not treated as a human, but we are entertainment for them...

Sometimes I feel unlucky myself, i was very religious, and it hunt me, but I believe if I keep myself together, I will be strong and won't be intimidated. After reading this article, I now know that I'm lucky, too bad there are so many close minded people out there who still think they are living in 18 century. People should realize that Dinosaurs are no longer exist!

These people who judge other people are sinner them self, trying to look more superior than other by judging and criticizing others, especially minority who they think we don't have power, although it is true, but the power itself are in our body and mind!

I really wish her well and keep strong! and I think President Obama should not be hesitate to call her to see how is she doing just like when he called Sandra Fluke, it's time for him to reach out to LGBT people after he disappoint us!
